11th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Fairly useful hurdler; 1-3 on the Flat in France early in 2023 and returned to this sphere with a front-running win in six-runner handicap at the other Newmarket track (1m6f, good to firm) in May, going clear about 4f out and staying clear; front-running in the 2m4f Ascot Handicap (33-1) one month later did not work out but he might still have more to offer on the Flat. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Fairly useful hurdler; 1-3 on the Flat in France early in 2023 and returned to this sphere with a front-running win in six-runner handicap at Newmarket (1m6f, good to firm) one month ago, going clear about 4f out and staying clear; up 7lb and into a much stronger race but he could have plenty more to offer. |

18th May 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Fairly useful hurdler who was consistent last jumps season, albeit in defeat; has left Paul Nicholls (same owners); unexposed on Flat (1-3 in France early in 2023) and needs a second look. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Flopped badly when favourite at Hexham last month and needs to put that behind him but looked in good nick when making all for clearcut success at Hereford (3m1f, good) two runs ago; dangerous if back at that level. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Has improved with each run since returning from a break and stepping up in trip, with cheekpieces added to a tongue-tie; made all at Hereford (3m1f, good) last month and a 6lb rise looks manageable; leading contender. |

12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 119y Class 4 |
12st 1lb |
He's returned from a break in good heart this year, finishing fourth at Market Rasen (2m7f, soft) before getting closer to the target when 3l third at Southwell (3m, good); entitled to respect. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20, however, and he was tailed off at Thirsk (good) on penultimate start, before he failed to shine at Newcastle's Northumberland Plate meeting (AW) for the third year in a row; not the percentage call. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Industrious and usually dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f; turf strike-rate is 1-20 and he was tailed off at Thirsk last time; back to AW and he's 7-34 in this sphere, but he's not shone at this meeting (16th in the Plate, 12th in the Vase) in the last two years. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y Class 3 |

Industrious and dependable sort at 1m6f-2m2f but turf strike-rate is 1-19; not discredited on latest start (1m5f) but others are preferred. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Easy win at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) in May before solid third of 16 over this C&D (good), and he improved again to win at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) last Saturday; today's assignment is tougher still but this thriving 5yo could be in the each-way mix under a 5lb penalty. |

1st 12 (5) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Won last March/April on first two starts for yard; took just one of 16 races since but that was penultimate start (Beverley 1m2f, good to firm) and last month's third of 16 off this mark in a Class 2 at York (1m2f) was as good as he's ever been; stays 1m4f; not the percentage call but not impossible. |

3rd 12 (13) |
12th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who won his first two starts for this yard; took four runs to get going this term but he was strong in the betting when cashing in on a reduced mark at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; handicapper has wasted no time putting him back to this career-high mark, though. |

29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
3lb lower than when winning here (1m4f) in September 2024 and ran well to finish fourth of ten in a 0-105 contest over C&D (first-time blinkers, now removed) in January but a five-month break and high draw do pose questions. |
9/1 |

4th 10 (8) |
28th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Creditable second at Southwell (1m4f) in September but has failed to repeat the form in two outings over the same C&D since; defied a 2lb higher mark at Kempton in 2024 and receives weight all round in this field, so has possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |
8/1 |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 14y Class 3 |
9st 13lb |
Three-time winner with form at this track; not far off his best RPR when second in a small field at Ascot (1m4f) and a steady pace was no good for his patient tactics when behind Great Bedwyn and Mrs Twig at Kempton two weeks ago; fair shout should this pan out more favourably. |

18th May 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Group 3 winner (2m/1m7f) for other yards in 2023; he didn't beat many last February-October and 1m4f for last month's reappearance (40-1) was too short; the latter was probably his most encouraging of five runs for current yard, however, and he's been dropped another 4lb since, which makes it 17lb below his peak mark; not ruled out. |

22nd Apr 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Dual Group 3 winner (2m/1m7f) for other yards in 2023; he didn't beat many last February-October, including in four races for current yard, and although he's not been sent to the Middle East to start this campaign and is now 13lb below his peak mark, this short a trip asks a big question. |
